Circulating bile acids predict outcome in critically ill patients
BACKGROUND Jaundice and cholestatic hepatic dysfunction are frequent findings in critically ill patients associated with increased mortality. Cholestasis in critically ill patients is closely associated with stimulation of pro-inflammatory cytokines resulting in impaired bile secretion and subsequent accumulation of bile acids. Aim of this study was to evaluate the clinical role of circulating ...
متن کاملDescription of the Clinical Course and Severity Score Progression in Critically Ill Children with Acute Bronchiolitis on High-Flow Nasal Cannula Support

متن کاملValidation of the LOD score compared with APACHE II score in prediction of the hospital outcome in critically ill patients.

متن کاملDay 1 blood glucose and outcome in critically ill children.
We analyzed the association between the day 1 glucose values in 209 children admitted to the PICU and the outcome (mortality). 58 (27.7%) children had hyperglycemia while 18 (8.6%) children had hypoglycemia, on day 1 after admission. Hypoglycemia was associated with higher mortality. This is contrary to the prevalent view supporting the association of hyperglycemia with poor outcome in the crit...

The authors should be congratulated for their attempt, and for the combination with the already existing well-validated Sequential Organ Failure Assessment (SOFA) score [2]. Organ dysfunction is an evolving state: its expression and conditio...
